Such a great place to visit for meat lovers! We shared a platter and the smoked meats were exceptional! Tried all the sauces too which go great with everything. Only a few tables inside so make sure you book but it adds to the friendly atmosphere!

Had the take away many times but it's just not the same as eating in fresh off the trays it just doesn't travel well it gets amalgamated and soft by the time your home but it still tastes fab just looks flatPresentation is far better and you are able to see what your eatingMeat is cooked slow and dining in service is slow but worth the waitIt's a busy placeOnce it's gone it's sold out

Been here a few times now and I've loved Everytime, including tonight, however, there were a few things that just weren't how they normally are but A LOT that was the usual delicious meaty goodness. The ribs were unreal, the burnt ends, belly pork bites and pulled pork were delicious but the brisket seemed dry? like it had been warmed on a grill/hot plate? It normally has a lovely red smoke ring too which was missing tonight, maybe it was just our portion? I'm not sure but like I say it isn't normally like this so could have just been a one off? The taco special was very nice too and although I don't like beef dripping chips my partner said they were delicious.(I ordered onion rings for this reason but please that isn't a negative, I just don't like dripping but my partner said they were the usual lovely crispy chips)The onion rings were amazing as normal but my biggest downfall was the pit beans. They're normally a lovely BBQ meaty feast but tonight they were different and tasted a lot like mustard? Great if you love mustard I guess but I could have cried into mine haha. I was devastated hahaha (I love those beans). The staff are amazing and it's such a lovely chill atmosphere. We will defo be back and I'm hoping the beans are back to their original BBQ meaty goodness.

Highly recommend. Ate here yesterday and the food was delicious and service great. I’m from the US and a regular smoker of meats. I can vouch for the authenticity. Also, and a very welcome surprise, they roast their own coffee. Made for an amazing espresso that helped me out of the food coma I put myself in. I haven’t found better BBQ in the North East. Well done to you all!

What a amazing secret spot. Warm welcome. An exceptional selection of low slow smoked meats and the sides were amazing. They have local craft beers and a great selection of gins. Blown away... Great work guys.

Finally got to try this place after a bit of confusion regarding the opening times.. Food was excellent; highlights include the frickles, onion rings, wings, pork belly, corn, slaw, ribs and burnt ends. The lass serving is was lovely. One of the best BBQ joints in the UK of the several I have visited (see my other reviews). Will return soon.
